Hindmarsh, Adelaide – The Loose Caboose Café is a chompery which is riiiiiiiight on the money honey. Firstly the décor is bright, fresh and eclectic with an undeniable scent of hipster wafting in through the doors of the trains which whoosh by. Did I mention it’s right on the Bowden Train Station? The large windows and outside deck provide a cheerful and open feel, perfect for a hungover Sunday where you need a pleasant place to nosh with the sunshine beaming in… reminding you that it’s not the end of the world that you called your ex bf 4 times in a row at 4.00am. FYI not a good look!

Oh when the saints, go marching in…

Dessert places are popping up in Adelaide as frequently as Fonzie’s thumbs in an episode of Happy Days. Eeeeyyyyyy!! With so much ground to cover it’s good to make sure you know which ones are worth a visit. St Louis, Gouger Street’s new lead character is exactly that – well worth the visit and well worth the calories. [Read more…]

When I heard about a little joint called East End Providore opening up on Ebenezer Place I wasn’t exactly sure what it was. A shop? A café? A bird? A plane? It seems I was getting mixed messages down my social media line and I decided to head straight to the source to sort the confusion. [Read more…]

The Pot is a little restaurant on King William which I have to say I havefallen in love with. As soon as you stroll through the doors you instantly feel like the place is a little something special with the long wooden tables, interesting artwork and a grand wine rack lining one of the walls.

Royal Tandoori on Unley Road is cheap. As cheap as a date who doesn’t offer to pay for your coffee. This place is perfect for a Sunday night hangover cure when you look inside your bag and say ‘please let there be money in here’ only to discover that yes, you did buy that last round of shots and no, you didn’t leave with any money-slash-dignity.

Step 1: Scrape up those gold coins in the bottom of your bag Step 2: Enjoy the feast!

The highlight on the menu for me is their lamb korma. I hate to sound like a cheap advertisement but the lamb is just melt-in-your-mouth tender. You can pay $25 for more food than Homer Simpson could eat. The service doesn’t come with any bells-or-whistles AKA friendly banter or menu item recommendations, but I’m not there to make friends. At that price, a smile is enough for me!

The food comes out quick and like watching Dirty Dancing for the 42nd time, it never disappoints. Johnny Castle, you are my fictional sole mate. *lusty-sigh*

Looking for cheap and delicious food in a laid back setting? You’re in the right place!
